My Mate Had A Girlfriend novel Chapter 23

I smirked, "If you don't care about other people as long as you have me, then you wouldn't still be with Valerie. Stop bullshitting."

"I'm not bull..." he stopped right there when we heard the door knob being twisted and then the door opened.

Calvin

"I'm not bull..." I stopped speaking when the door knob was being twisted and the door went open. I let out a sigh of relief when it was just Jean. I wouldn't want anyone else entering the room with me on top of Beatrix.

"Calvin? What are you doing on top of Beatrix?" She asked me, eyeing me. I quickly got down and pulled her into the room, closing the door.

"Uh I'm just..." I looked over at Beatrix, hoping that she would help me answer this little girl which she did not. "I'm just helping Beatrix. Uh she's in pain," I lied.

"Can you send me to bed already?" Jean asked me, totally ignoring what I had answered her.

"Uh sure," I said. I walked over to Beatrix and whispered, "I'll come back."

Then I picked Jean up and rested her on my hip, walking out of the clinic's room and into her's. It was only 9pm and I was surprised that the pack room was already quiet. I slipped Jean under her covers and placed her favourite toy doll next to her before cuddling her.

"Calvin?" Jean called.

"Yes Jean?"

"Why do you not want to live her with me anymore?"

"I want to live with Valerie," I said softly. Did I really want to live with her now? "She's my girlfriend," I continued and winced quietly when I had to say that she was my girlfriend.

"Did she not want to live with us?"

"No. She wants privacy."

"What is privacy?" Jean asked again and this time in a sleepy tone.

"It means she wants her personal space, Jean."
